All of the benefits of childhood, most of the benefits of adulthood, also puberty.

You know coming of age movies/books/etc? This is the age to be coming to. It's all downhill from 14.

Literally chuuni age.

It's the last year of Jap middle school so it's seen as a time of maturing into high school.

Too old to fuck with any security.

15 is more common, but the characters identify themselves as first-year high school students instead of their age.

Two words "target demographic" . These stories are often for children.

>>157082762
Not young enough to be a kid but not old enough to be an adult either. It's the perfect mid-place.

Legally, I don't think the benefits of adulthood really begin trickling in until 16. At 14 you still have no real say in anything unless your parents allow you to.

It's the age you start high school in japan.

6-12: elementary school
